Congratulations to edmondlambrechts for becoming the 10,000th member. [:)]
Thank you everyone for your participation in the community! Without all of you this site wouldn’t be what it is today. It is inspiring to see so many people helping each other, sharing information and offering encouragement to one another.
Now it’s time for bed!
Thank you and good night. [;)]
It just happened. March 6, 2003, 8am GMT. Edmonlambrechts has become member #10,000…! What a community! Bring on champagne and the donuts, then…!
I feel like I’ve missed the party [:(] Here I am wondering where’s all the ‘chatter’ on the CBP and it’s over here at the 10,000 member discussion. And now, the party is over and I’m just showing up at the door… Oh well, someone’s got to clean up after you guys…
Guess I should check-in a little more often!!
No KrispeKreme (or however its spelt) in my area, but I have had a little of the Kringle down in the Racine area. Good stuff.
Congrats on a successful forum and website!! Well run and well attended.

Any bets on when we will break 15,000? At the rate we are gaining members I would say sometime early next month.
Well, at 11,483, berny13 might just be right. Where was that coupon for twofers at Krispy Kreme? May have to add a jelly doughnut to the order…

Wow, has any one noticed we just topped 12,008
Onward and Upward [:p]

Hey guys & gals …
This forum is just getting bigger and better … wonder if things will sort of slow down … in the summer … you know … the season some think is the “off season” for scale modeling … shoot … sometimes I get more quality building done during the “hot” months than I do during the “cold” months … anyway … come to think of it … when we are having our warm months here in the northern hemisphere … our friends in the southern hemisphere are having their winter … I guess it all evens out somehow doesn’t it???
Say, 15,000 members isn’t far off is it???
Yep, it keeps getting bigger and bigger! One thing I’ve noticed though is that the number of post is catching up on the number of members. I recall a time when we had twice as many members as messages. Since we are still getting new members at a rapid rate, it must mean that more people are posting more messages… It must show that people here are getting more and more confident with the Forums and its other members. Another proof that this is the ‘right’ place, with the ‘right’ people!

Well … I hadn’t looked at the fiqures in quite that way … but, by golly you are right … and I think your theory based on analysis of the numbers is also correct … more comfort … more postings.

And as to the 15,000… Well, I’m thinking we’ll get there on the 27th of April…
Did anyone notice that on 4/2/03 at 11:46 there were 66 people on the forum? That’s a lot of people. I always seem to miss those busy times. I’m going to have to tell my boss that my job is interfering with my hobby.
Darren
I know! I always miss those busy times too! You guys in the US and Canada have to get up earlier! (or stay on longer!)
Hey djmodels, I’m eight hours out - so if I’m on at 10pm you might just be checking the boards first thing in the moring at 6 [:D]
Hmmm… Someone own stock in Krappy Kreme? [;)]
Fade to Black…
Well, we’ve just gone over the 13,000 mark. Very cool!! [8D]
The growth in forum membership is absolutely astonishing. I think it’s great. In reading FSM editorials I know that they’re very (pleasantly) surprised by it also.
I’m betting that Dave Voss is going to have to do a MAJOR server upgrade soon!!
Well, even if the number of member’s growth rate seems to be going down a little, we are now only 360 people short of 15,000 members…! It can only be a few (5-6?) days away… [8D]
Well here we are at 15, 018. That’s 2.000+ new members in about 30 days! Who brought the doughnuts? That’ll be a to-go order, please!!! :)- Ed
What ever happened to Dunkin Donuts? Have we all forgotten that it’s “Time to make the donuts?”
There’s just no joy in tradition…
